10 Summer sandals & accessories

Be black and blue

Be black and blue

The combination of black, white and turquoise is stunning, especially in the summer. Pick up accessories that stand out when paired with a neutral outfit. The Raquel Bianco sterling silver ring with black enamel and white and blue topaz ($249) pairs perfectly with a simple black romper or LBD, while the Everything But Water Bold Pareo ($58) adds excitement to single-color swimsuits.

Caribbean cool

Caribbean cool

Step back to enjoy the cooler side of the Caribbean! Try mixing and matching greens and blues to master the look. We love Harveys Hampton Large Carry-all in Sea Sprite ($134) paired with the Aerosoles Plush Pillow in blue/green ($69). And, you can't go wrong by brightening up any look with the soft open-weave Kendall scarves by Sarah Stewart Stylish Adornments ($95).

Make a statement

Make a statement

There's no better time to make a fashion statement than the middle of the summer! Go ahead and grab those crazy high heels and over-sized accessories. We'd love to pair the Alexandra G. Asia 'H Orange heel ($386) with a clingy jersey dress and the Ali's Collection Properties of Space necklace ($125).

Boldly chill

Boldly chill

It's possible to master a bold look while still appearing to be laid back. Just look for simple, streamlined accessories with a pop of bright color or an eye-catching, but understated design. Take a cue from the Sylvia Sandal ($45) by Flojos and the Sigg Peace and Harmony water bottle ($22). Both have simple color palettes, but bold appeal. And yes, water bottles can be accessories, too!

Play with color

Play with color

Neon brights are hot this summer, so play with yellows, pinks, oranges and reds by adding them to your summer accessories. We love the Peggy Li Multicolored Heshi Earrings ($49), the Davina Satchel ($88) by Danielle Nicole and the red-hot 'Joni' Sandal by Me Too ($89).

Go a little wild

Go a little wild

Animal prints and tribal-themed accessories are another big summertime trend. Rock the look by picking up a pair of ultra-comfortable California Footwear San Diego sandals in White Snake ($70) and pairing them with cut-off shorts, a burnout tee and the Ferdoz Wood and Gunmetal leather bangles ($22).
